Interface IStorageEditorInput

All Superinterfaces:

IAdaptable, IEditorInput

All Known Subinterfaces:

IFileEditorInput

All Known Implementing Classes:

FileEditorInput

public interface IStorageEditorInput

extends IEditorInput

Interface for a IStorage input to an editor.

Clients should implement this interface to declare new types of IStorage editor inputs.

File-oriented editors should support this as a valid input type, and display its content for viewing (but not allow modification). Within the editor, the "save" and "save as" operations should create a new file resource within the workspace.

All editor inputs must implement the IAdaptable interface; extensions are managed by the platform's adapter manager.
